Dialysis is completely free in all government hospitals, claims CM Nayab Saini.
In Faridabad, a woman dies in a hospital; the family, out of cash, takes the body home on a cart — reports The Times of India.
A slap on the face of the government.

According to the report, “The body of Anuradha, a 35-year-old woman who died during TB treatment at a Faridabad hospital, was taken home by her family last Wednesday in the same motorised pushcart they earn their livelihood from. With his grandfather driving the cart and his father and grandmother in mourning, the woman’s seven-year-old son did his best to ensure the journey was as dignified as possible for his dead mother, holding on to the sheet draped over her corpse to prevent the wind from blowing it away. Shockingly, during the ten-kilometre journey from Badshah Khan Civil Hospital to their house in Sarurpur, the family of four was utterly alone, making way through traffic, focused only on safely completing the ride.”

The family said ambulances asked for ₹700, but they did not have money left even for the last rites.

Tailpiece: To add salt to the injury, Deputy Civil Surgeon Dr M.P. Singh says the case will be investigated and if any negligence is found, action will be taken.
